Actor Paul Nicholls rescued after three days trapped at bottom of Thai waterfall with broken legs

‘Eastenders’ and ‘Ackley Bridge’ actor Paul Nicholls has been rescued after spending three days trapped at the bottom of a waterfall in Thailand.

Nicholls had motorcycled to the site in Koh Samui before falling, breaking both legs and shattering a knee, revealed his agent. The alarm was raised by villagers who found his rental bike, before Nicholls was found semi-conscious and with hypothermia. He has been hospitalised and will be flown back to the UK next week.
